FSX Spantax DeHavilland Dash 7

Spantax livery textures bring a classic DeHavilland Dash 7 look to the Milton Shupe model, with period-accurate airline markings and a polished finish that suits both ramp shots and regional routes in FSX. Requires the Dash7 base package (dash7v1 or dash7v9, depending on sim folder structure).
